Résumé : |
Producing high elevation plants under arid, low elevation conditions presents several challenges including heavy textured soils, desiccating winds and open winters. Methods of reducing soil crusting and improving seedling emergence include using vermiculite or rice hulls during seeding, rolling, and light, frequent irrigation with sprinklers during germination and establishment. Snow fence creates additional winter cover to protect seed production fields. Seed harvesting of small-stature and/or indeterminate species is maximized by hand harvesting, cyclic stripping or vacuuming, or windrowing, all followed by after-ripening. Summer cuttings are a viable alternative for container production. |
